QatarPitso Mosimane has been appointed as the new manager of the South Africa national football team, replacing Hugo Broos, following South Africa's early exit from the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The appointment was finalized 24 days after approval by the national football association, with association president Danny Jordaan noting delays in 'tying up loose ends.' Mosimane, a former South African striker, will lead the team for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers, facing Guinea in their opening match. This marks his second tenure as coach, having previously led the team from 2010 to 2012 before being sacked in 2014. Despite past failures, including a controversial 2014 World Cup qualification loss, Mosimane has achieved significant success at the club level, winning multiple CAF titles. His new contract extends until the 2030 World Cup.
